Hydration of Portland-Pozzolanic Cements
Portland-pozzolanic cements were prepared by gradual replacement of Portland cement by pozzolana. Calcined common clay and china clay were used as two different pozzolanas. Sulphated Portland-pozzolanic cements were prepared by incorporating gypsum. Hydration values were measured on curing these cements separately in water and in 5% MgSO4, solution. On

Assessment of pozzolanic material for manufacturing of Portland Pozzolana cement (PPC) by the comparison of Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) [PDF]
In the present study physicochemical characterization of slate sample was carried out which was collected from slate mine in Lasbela District, Baluchistan. Slate was evaluated for its effectiveness as partial replacement of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in the production of Portland Pozzolana cement (PPC).

Clays for Low-Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges. [PDF]
This review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered

Thermally Activated Bentonite As a Supplementary Cementitious Material – A Review [PDF]
Bentonite is a mixture of clay and non-clay minerals. Montmorillonite clay mineral is a dominant mineral in bentonite. Silica and alumina bond in the crystal structure of montmorillonite. Therefore, they cannot contribute to the pozzolanic reaction. Heat
